I'd be rather interested to know what is on the SD card. I wonder if it is possible to use the Kobo software to download the firmware update, take the files from a temp directory, load on a SD card and then flash.

Something that astounds me is Kobo's fascination with their 100 free books. Latest firmware allows you to hide them, but why not delete them? It's like they are saying "You bought this Kobo, now you MUST keep these free books". Not that it is an issue for me, if I can find a solution to this firmware updating I'll be more inclined to look at buying one.
